Why is it a good thing?
As long as they are healthy snakes with no problem what is the difference besides colour.. Are designer cats and dogs etc etc going to be banned too?
Healthy mmmmm read on
Most albinos have serious vision difficulties

In the wild, an albino is generally discovered and eaten by a predator early in life.
Captive albinos don't have that problem, however they still may have a shortened life span. Unique color morphs lines are generally created from a single aberrant individual, which is then bred back to a parent or sibling to get the line started. Animals from inbred lines frequently have specific problems that lead to a shortened life span.
One of the most troubling aspects of HPS is that its course is unpredictable. The severity of bleeding problems varies much in HPS, from minor bruising to life-threatening hemorrhage.
inflammation of the intestines, which may cause bloody diarrhea
The cause of the lung and intestinal problems may to have something to do with a "ceroid" or yellowish material which is found in many different organs
The sun's hazardous ultraviolet (UV) radiation (invisible energy waves) bombards an animal's skin. For most creatures, sunbeams signal their bodies to pump up the production of melanin (pigment that controls color). This natural toner helps skin tan rather than burn. Since albino animals can't produce pigments, they're unable to protect their skin. Too much UV exposure can spell severe sunburn--and possibly deadly cancers. Albino reptiles (classification of animals that includes snakes, lizards, alligators, crocodiles, and turtles) face a particularly serious dilemma. These cold-blooded animals depend on external heat to regulate their body temperature and metabolism (process in which billions of the body's cells release energy stored in food). Reptiles' heat source: the sun.
When wild albino reptiles seek out the sun for warmth, they're in for trouble, says John Brueggen, a herpetologist (reptile scientist) at the Saint Augustine Alligator Farm in Florida. "They burn," he says. "But they don't know they're burning. So they'll keep bunting until they blister."
This would have to be my main concern people keeping the with regular lighting as I have seen
Eye conditions common in albinism may include:
